چکیده
We present experimental observations of self-trapped rings carrying zero topological charge, along with simulations that display the self-focusing dynamics of the rings and their stability features in materials with saturable nonlinearities.

Propagation of Incoherently Coupled Soliton Pairs in Photorefractive Crystals and their Self-Deflection
Propagation of incoherently soliton pairs in photorefractive crystals under steady-state conditions is studied. These soliton states can be generated when the two mutually incoherent optical beams with the same polarization and wavelength incident on the biased photorefractive crystal. Such soliton pairs can exist in bright-bright, dark-dark, gray-gray as well as in bright-dark types. In this p...
متن کاملObservation of bright spatial photorefractive solitons in a planar strontium barium niobate waveguide.
We have obtained stationary bright spatial solitons in a planar photorefractive strontium barium niobate waveguide for visible light ranging from 514.5 to 780 nm. Even for larger wavelengths (lambda=1047 nm) strong self-focusing of the beam was observed; however, input power had to be some orders of magnitude higher than for visible light for self-focusing to occur. Furthermore, we found transi...
متن کاملStability of three-dimensional self-trapped beams with a dark spot surrounded by bright rings of varying intensity.
We analytically and numerically examine the stability of three-dimensional self-trapped beams with a dark spot surrounded by bright rings of varying intensity in a uniform saturable self-focusing medium. It is shown that the fundamental bound state of the family is stable to a symmetric perturbation but unstable to an asymmetric perturbation (that breaks the azimuthal symmetry of the beam, i.e....
متن کاملRydberg-induced solitons: three-dimensional self-trapping of matter waves.
We propose a scheme for the creation of stable three-dimensional bright solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates, i.e., the matter-wave analog of so-called spatiotemporal "light bullets." Off-resonant dressing to Rydberg nD states is shown to provide nonlocal attractive interactions, leading to self-trapping of mesoscopic atomic clouds by a collective excitation of a Rydberg atom pair. We present ...
متن کاملEffect of Relative Phase on the Stability of Temporal Bright Solitons in a PT- Symmetric NLDC
In this paper we numerically investigate the effect of relative phase on thestability of temporal bright solitons in a Nano PT- Symmetric nonlinear directionalcoupler (NLDC) by considering gain in bar and loss in cross. We also study the effect ofrelative phase on the output perturbed bright solitons energies, in the range of 0 to 180 . By using perturbation theory three eigenfunctions an...
